Hooked on a Feeling: WDG Mixtape, Vol. 1


Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 is set to be one of the biggest hits of the summer season. Last year’s blockbuster opened with Star Lord grooving his way through a cavernous alien world to Redbone’s “Come and Get Your Love.” It only got better from there.

For a movie whose buzz was built on its near perfect soundtrack, Vol. 2 has a lot to live up to.  At WDG, we know a little something about fantastic music and living up to high expectations from our clients.

Not only do we love blasting our mixtape in the office, but we’ve partnered with Hubbard Radio to design and build a digital streaming platform.

For Hubbard, we created a custom listening experience for users to curate the perfect playlist on a highly performant platform. With the ability to like artists and songs, create playlists, share to social media, and subscribe for rewards, users receive a personalized, interactive listening experience on Hubbard.

The innovative rewards program gamifies the the listening experience for users and creates pathways for increased subscriptions and revenue, with real time analytics using Mixpanel for Hubbard admins to analyze and query user data.

Check out our own WDG Team playlist and share the songs that pump you up for the workday by tweeting us @wdgtweet.

Sometimes you have to break the mold to make something great.

A little something for those Mellow Monday vibes.

We share the love with our community through our nonprofit initiative, GiveBack DC.

 Fortunate Son (Creedence Clearwater Revival)

We’re pretty fortunate to work with amazing people (and our office puppies).

Bonusly for anyone who can recite this entire song.

Like Fall Out Boy, WDG never goes out of style.

We love music that’s as diverse and unique as our team.
